- NAME
- strcmp, strncmp - compare two strings
- SYNOPSIS
- #include <string.h>
- int strcmp(const char *s1, const char *s2);
- int strncmp(const char *s1, const char *s2, size_t n);
- DESCRIPTION
- The strcmp() function compares the two strings s1 and s2. It returns
- an integer less than, equal to, or greater than zero if s1 is found,
- respectively, to be less than, to match, or be greater than s2.
- The strncmp() function is similar, except it only compares the first
- (at most) n characters of s1 and s2.
- RETURN VALUE
- The strcmp() and strncmp() functions return an integer less than, equal
- to, or greater than zero if s1 (or the first n bytes thereof) is found,
- respectively, to be less than, to match, or be greater than s2.
